Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ojai, CA.

One kind of payment help that some substance abuse rehab centers may offer their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can afford some degree of self-payment, these centers provide financial aid on a case by case basis which can greatly reduce the cost of treatment so that it can be afforded by that particular client. This typically works like this: the person will have to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

For example, if someone in Ojai only earns $18,000 a year, has 3 children and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for rehab, whereas a person who has no family and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay $3000.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional assistance to pay this lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual finishes treatment.
